The rhythm of the drums set the pace Thursday evening as thousands of Orlando City soccer fans spilled out from Church Street Station and walked west into Parramore.
The crowd marched toward the future home of the franchise, smoke bombs billowing as the name of their city — "Oh, oh, oh, Orlando," they sang — echoed along the city blocks.
The final destination was an open patch of grass and dirt at the corner of Church Street and Parramore Avenue, part of the site that will soon be...

Charley Winner doesn't take old age lying down. At 90, the former Baltimore Colts coach plays tennis five times a week, for 90 minutes a day.
"That's about all I can stand," Winner said from his home in South Fort Myers, Fla. "All of us in the group are 70-and-up. We all like to win, but nobody argues about points. Life's too short."
A defensive coach for the Colts for 12 seasons, Winner is the last surviving coach of either team from the 1958 NFL championship, dubbed "The Greatest Game Ever Played."...

Buck Showalter does not believe he's changed. Let's get that out of the way right off.
In fact, he's suspicious of anyone applying a sweeping narrative of transformation to his current success as Orioles manager.
"I think I'm just perceived different," he said in a hushed moment outside the clubhouse, three days after his team clinched its first American League East title since 1997. "It's funny how that changes."
The Orioles' 2014 postseason — which begins with Game 1 of the American League...

KANSAS CITY, MO. --- So let's catch everybody up on Jeremy Guthrie's poor wardrobe choice for his ALCS Game 3 postgame news conference.
After holding his former team to one run over five innings in Game 3 at Kauffman Stadium, the Kansas City Royals right-hander came to the podium to speak to reporters wearing a shirt that said “These O’s ain’t Royal.”
Now, some people might be wondering what that even means. But it’s a play on a lyric from a Chris Brown pop hit. If you&...

Wrigley Field. Fenway Park. Yankee Stadium. These venerable sports stadiums were built and paid for by the professional teams that played in them during the early years of the 20th century. By the end of the century, however, billion-dollar franchises were routinely persuading cities and other municipalities to build them new arenas and renovate old ones at taxpayer expense.
Teams argued that cities more than made up for the expense in the form of taxes, job creation and the multiplier effect. But...
